Youth Pass

Marin Transit offers a six month or annual pass that is distributed through participating Marin County schools. With a Youth Pass, registered Marin County students and youth ages 18 and under are able to ride on local routes in Marin (excluding any Golden Gate Transit regional or commute routes such as the 30/40/70/101 lines) without paying any additional fare.

For information on the Youth Pass program, read the FAQs (in English or Spanish).
